I'm sort of wondering about how I've been feeling lately. I've been on an anti-depressant medicine for a while now, probably since the beginning of september or so. At first it definitely did improve my energy, but now, I'm still taking it and I just feel like my energy is so low all of the time. I've also been having trouble lately concentrating and focusing, getting motivated, stuff like that. Do I just need to work on my skills in those areas...or is there something else, something physical also going on? Or, could this still just be a bunch of grief and stuff like that just working itself out, and doing so through physical symptoms. It's so confusing, I just want to know how to be feeling better.

I've been taking better care of myself, or trying to at least, lately. I started working out really consistently this past month, and I think that has been helping a lot. I think I need to try to keep doing that as I go along, try to keep taking really good care of myself.

I have another appointment with the psychiatrist soon too I think, maybe this coming Friday. I did a blood test last time, because I think he wanted to check some of my other levels, to make sure that something physical or something wasn't also causing my fatigue. I guess we'll see what they found. Otherwise, who knows. I may be changing the med that I take at night, the seroquel, to something else, that isn't so drowsy causing...that actually helps more with depression. But we'll see, it's all about trial-and-error, I guess, at least that's what it feels like these days. Trying different things, seeing what works. Amazing that I'm still able to function and keep going with my education through all of this.

Glad I have this place for some support.
